Yginio Salazar
Yginio Salazar (February 14, 1858 - January 7, 1936) was a member of the Lincoln County Regulators during the Lincoln County War. Although he is sometimes referred to as the youngest of the Lincoln County Regulators, this is almost certainly in error. An error listing his birthday on his gravestone is a primary source of this error, but frequent references to Yginio Salazar as "the young Salazar" imply that he was among the youngest. In fact, although he was young he was almost certainly older than his friend Billy the Kid. Childhood Salazar was probably born on 14 Feb 1858 (or 1857) in Valencia County, New Mexico. In the 1860 census of Valencia County, he is listed as age 2 in the household as the son of Teofilo and Paula (Paubla) Salazar in the Quara & Cienga area. Also listed in this household are siblings Lugarda (12), Francisco (8), Magencia (6) Romulo (5) and José (2). This conflicts with the popularly cited birth year of 1863 (and the year on his gravestone), but the 1860 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Lincoln County Regulators
The Lincoln County Regulators, or just the Regulators, were an American Old West deputized posse that fought in the Lincoln County War in New Mexico, during the late 19th century. Members history and friendships The Regulators were formed out of numerous small ranch owners and cowboys in the Lincoln, New Mexico area. Many of those who became best known as "Regulators" had a long history with one another previously. William Bonney, aka Billy the Kid or Henry McCarty, would become the best known, mostly because news accounts attached his name to everything the Regulators did. The Lincoln County War brought him to the front, but several of the other Regulators were actually the driving force behind the events, and had a history of killing alongside one another prior to the war. Ab Saunders, Charlie Bowdre, Doc Scurlock, Frank Coe, and George Coe had previously killed rustlers together. On July 18, 1876, that group had stormed the Lincoln jail, removing horse thief Jesus Largo, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Billy The Kid
Billy the Kid (born Henry McCarty; September 17 or November 23, 1859July 14, 1881), also known by the pseudonym William H. Bonney, was an outlaw and gunfighter of the American Old West, who killed eight men before he was shot and killed at the age of 21. He also fought in New Mexico's Lincoln County War, during which he allegedly committed three murders. McCarty was orphaned at the age of 15. His first arrest was for stealing food at the age of 16 in 1875. Ten days later, he robbed a Chinese laundry and was arrested again but escaped shortly afterwards. He fled from New Mexico Territory into neighboring Arizona Territory, making himself both an outlaw and a federal fugitive. In 1877, he began to call himself "William H. Bonney". Two versions of a wanted poster dated September 23, 1875 referred to him as "Wm. Wright, better known as Billy the Kid". After killing a blacksmith during an altercation in August 1877, McCarty became a wanted man in Arizona and returned to New ...

Lincoln County War
The Lincoln County War was an Old West conflict between rival factions which began in 1878 in Lincoln County, New Mexico Territory, the predecessor of the state of New Mexico, and continued until 1881. The feud became famous because of the participation of William H. Bonney ("Billy the Kid"). Other notable participants included Sheriff William J. Brady, cattle rancher John Chisum, lawyer and businessman Alexander McSween, James Dolan and Lawrence Murphy. The conflict began between two factions competing for profits from dry goods and cattle interests in the county. The older, established faction was dominated by James Dolan, who operated a dry goods monopoly through a general store referred to locally as "The House". English-born John Tunstall and his business partner Alexander McSween opened a competing store in 1876, with backing from established cattleman John Chisum. The two sides gathered lawmen, businessmen, Tunstall's ranch hands, and criminal gangs to their assistanc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
